CHESTER48:
Oga if Igbo man becomes president there are so many things we are gaining.
1. Look at enugu.they call the airport international airpot.van you imagine that you have to either travel to Yoruba land or hausa land to travel out of the country! Is it fair? Hindering cargo imports landing direct in enugu

2. Might be state but look at anambra.they need a company there.either shoe making company etc. Igbo are developing and trying new things.

3. Innoson.he wil gain proper and thus employ more Igbo youths this can help us gain biafra in future.
4. Look at nsukka. They are asking for capital but this Fulanis has refused to give u us.neglecting us and always supporting themselves. For how many months now nsukka is asking for a capita to make it a state. But they are scared we may closely be larger.
5. How many of your people are in power? Staring from the president, chief of staff to the lowest position. How many ministers are Igbo? The more you make them rich they come down to their state to build houses hotels and that's what develops a city.

are u minding that efulefu u quoted...as if buhari people never benefit...

afonja and dead bodies/skull mining

BALLOSKI:
Way to go. Yahaya bello should face a direct primaries.

please what's the difference between direct primaries and consensus..thanks

Igbo hatred within is much

The Chairman, South East Governors Forum and Governor of Ebonyi State, Engr. David Umahi, has strenghtened the resolve of the entire South East to support only the presidential aspirant who would guarantee equity, fairnes and justice for the zone, come 2019.
Umahi passed the verdict on Sunday when he received a Peoples Democratic Party presidential aspirant, Rabiu Kwankwaso, at the Government House, Abakaliki.
He described the South East as a free, truthful, loving and enterprising people desirous of the unity and oneness of Nigeria but warned that the zone would no longer be treated with ignominy in the general affairs of the country, adding that it would as a matter of importance, discuss and agree on the candidate to follow based on the wishes and aspirations of the people.
He decried the high level of inter and intra party acrimony raging in the country and maintained that it was time for the leaders to come to a negotiation table in order to profer solutions to the divisive sentiments tending to distabilize the country.
Umahi stressed: “The Nigeria people are getting more experienced.
“As people come to speak, they guage the aspirants and if any body tells you that he can influence the choice of any aspirant in this State, the person is not telling you the truth.
“We bond together as one people and we take decision as one people.
“At the end of the day, the decision of the best aspirant to follow will be that of the people…and we will definitely let the aspirants know who our choice is and the reason behind the choice.
“We may not be that rich but we are rich in truth.
“Ebonyi State, your excellency and indeed the South East is very desirous of the unity of this country; the oneness of this country,
“We desire equity, justice and fairness.
“We are very free people and very loving people, and that’s why we can come to your backyard in Kano, buy lands and buld houses and get ourselves at rest with the people and we and the people will do business.
“All that we need to thrive as a people is for fairness, Justice and equity to be enthroned
“And if any body says that South-east will not negotiate with the person that they shall cast their votes for, it is not true.
“We have reached a stage in this country where we should sit down as leaders and discuss: what are the things that bind us together, what are the things that tear us apart?
“This is because whether you are APC or PDP, whatever position you are having, if there is no more Nigeria, you will not hold those positions
“So this is very important for us and we will definitely insist that there is need to discuss.”
Umahi, however, acknowledged Kwankwaso’s laudable achievements both as former Governor of Kano State and former Minister of Defence, especially in the areas of transparency and human development.
He noted that with the large crowd of followers and the love expressed for Kwankwaso in the State he is “evidently qualified” for the job he was seeking. Umahi wished him luck and divine guidance.
Delivering his mission statement, the presidential aspirant said he was in the State to officially introduce and hand over the representatives of his Campaign organisation, known as Kwankwasiyya Movement, to the Governor and the party leadership in the State.
He described Kwankwasiyya as a movement started between 1991 and 1992 in Kano and which over the years has gained tremendous membership, especially from the lowly but very important segment of society across the country, adding that it membership in Ebonyi State cutting across all segments of society was about 50,000 at present.
Describing himself as a privileged and experienced politician, having started from the grassroots, he noted that out of the total of 15 different elections he had contested, he had only lost two.
He pledged to tackle the issues of power, education, health, as well as redeem the infrastructural deficiencies in the country while improving the resources of the State in particular and the South-east zone in general.
Kwankwaso further pledged to carry all and sundries along if he succeeds in his ambition.
He said: “The point I am trying to make, your excellency is to say that I started from the grassroots, from the scratch.
“Your Excellency, to me anybody who is in politics and never contested any election, if you are looking for field politician, it shouldn’t be him.
“You need to contest and win and contest and lose to fill all the gaps because you have to learn how to manage success in politics. You have to also learn how to manage failure in politics.
“I want to assure you that if we succeed, God willing, everybody, from the grassroot, right from the lowest level of our Party, the PDP, every body will be carried along to offer his or her maximum contribution for the success of the Government and ofcourse, that of the party.”
Meanwhile, Kwankwaso congratulated Ebonyi State for having Umahi as Governor and expressed ovewhelming pride over his bountiful achievements as a PDP Governor.
He added: “He is a Governor who I can comfortably recommend to this State for second term and also anybody like him should have an opportunity to spend eight years so that not only he will complete the projects and programmes that he has started but also, I’m sure he will start many more and complete them in the future.
“So I congratulate the people of Ebony State and I am so happy that we have such Governors in in the PDP (Peolples Democratic party) today).”
Kwankwaso has scheduled to officially declare for his presidential ambition and lauch his campaign at the Eagle Square, Abuja on August,29

Abia sha...always having bad leaders

confused Yoruba elders

the title should have been gov okorocha advises new APC chairmen in the 27LGA of IMO state to shun corruption like him

osho-omo-ole looted this state dry....he's the real looter

they should cut buhari some slack abeg

Abia state unfortunately is still useless at 27

SE has no political structure.. just mention one SE politician respected outside of his own state..
peter obi is only popular in Anambra
Rochas is infamously popular in IMO
Ogbonnaya onu is only popular in Ebonyi
orji uzor kalu is infamously popular in Abia
I don't know of any heavy weight politician of national importance from Enugu in APC or PDP except just maybe Sullivan
now imagine the kind support buhari has in kano which isn't even his own state also cutting across to other Northwest states and Northeast. I even thought buhari was from kano before
igbos are not meant to produce the president... that's my honest opinion..the lifestyle of igbos don't suit it...igbos even lived independently as communities before the whites came... the Igbo unity is just BC of Nigeria nothing else
in a nutshell, Igbo presidency is not here

all these looters sef

kwankwaso is a more smarter Igbo hater than buhari...I rather vote buhari than that bigot

NobleRomm:
Enugu is still young like this with all this development... that's great

had it been Nigeria as a country is as developed as this when she was 27..den by now America for no they see our back..

don't be deceived..Enugu capital is as old as calabar and Lagos is just Enugu as a state that's 27

anxiousguy:
Hello nairalanders.
I had a fallout with some friends and ever since then I've been having this anxious feeling all the time. Its affecting my health already.

Just recently I decided to spend more time to myself reading James hadly chase books.

I've deleted my WhatsApp, deactivated my Facebook and anything that'd make me talk to anyone.

I only come to nairaland to read the headlines and that's all.

The isolation doesn't seem to help me and each time I'm always having a feeling that there's danger ahead.

My breathing is twise its normal rate and even movement of an ant would get my heart beating 1000 times in a second.

I've decided to cut out the people giving me problems in life with hope that I'd live a normal and happy life but the thought of seeing them everyday just makes me anxious.

I feel like quitting school and starting all over again in a place that no one knows me but my sister talked me out of when I told her of my plans.

I'm tired of getting manipulated by those unfriendly friends and I've decided to live my life without them but I can't help but feel anxious knowing that I'd be seeing them everyday until I graduate.

I've not made or received any phone calls since 15 days because I put my phone out of action by destroying my old lines and getting a new line which I intend to use only for data subscription and nothing else.

My mum after 3 days of not hearing from me has sent someone to check on me in my hostel and immediately I heard a knock my heart started beating faster than it was supposed to. It didn't take the person few seconds to sense that I wasn't my normal self.

I confided in her and her words gave me solace till she left. Knowing that I'm passionate about programming and software design, she bought me three udemy courses to keep me busy but I've not been able to watch more than 3 minutes of the lectures.

I took a peep at Facebook today and discovered that I'd be having some tests tomorrow in school. Immediately I remembered that I'd be seeing those friends again and the worry and increased heartbeat started again.

I've tried to get over this anxiety on my own but all my efforts seems to be futile. I can't even type as my fingers are shaking due to the panic that has developed.


Please nairalanders, I need advice. Anything that can help me overcome this panic. If this continues I won't be able to concentrate on my studies and by doing that, I'd only be helping them achieve their aim.

I don't want to show this anxiety when I appear in school tomorrow.
I want to live as happy as I can.
I don't want to feel defeated.
I don't intend to seek reassurance from others anymore.
I want to get out of this pervasive worry as it is doing me no good.
The increased heartbeat makes me get tired easily and I want to be as lively as I can when I get to class tomorrow.

I know this would get more audience if it is moved to the front-page

I'm a medical doctor who also passed through this anxiety disorder when I was in school..precisely around 4th/5th year.the fact is that nothing happening to you now hasn't happened to someone else before.you're having generalized anxiety disorder.. forget about those telling you that you're not a man here.I will use my own case to tell you exactly what to do.

anxiety is usually common with introverts and in my own case fear of failing my medical exams threw me into anxiety such that I feel my heart beat and rarely sleep at night
It was even further aggravated by the threat of a lecturer who's saying we're all going to fail such that my heart will always start beating so fast in class when he says it,mind you I was by far intelligent and get high grades in test and never failed any exam
I had to start taking anxiolytics like diazepam yo calm myself but that a alone didn't help until I now told my inner self that its better what I'm afraid of comes to pass than for me to be anxious and that was the beginning of my emancipation and things started getting better
I initially had a whole lot of friends that I used to please but I told myself, to what extent since those Friends were taking advantage of me and had nothing to gain from them
I had to dissociate myself from them,just know you that you don't have to please everyone, just make friends that value you and much as you value them as it is not by the number of friends you have rather by the quality
